nicksneddon so did I. Then I rewatched it after many years and realized that it was unironically amazing.

    8 days later

    alistair the star wars ‘fans’ are already out in force (pun intended) complaining about the black, female character and saying she should be removed.

    Ffs

        Wally she looked badass in the trailer. Out in force lol

          Andor trailer looks ace, mostly due to them having some serious talent in front of the camera for it.

          Stellan Skarsgård & Fiona Shaw on a Star Wars-show? Okay then.

            Homegrove FFS, nobody at Disney knows how to light a scene, most of it looks like it was shot on fuckin Ramsey Street with a similar budget.

            For the sake of art they need to do a KLF and delete their back catalogue.

                I enjoyed the two Obi-Wan episodes. Very prequels stylistically, but that should not have been a surprise.

                Thought it was alright. Better than the tripe served up by TBOBF and the majority of Mando.

                I don’t mind the dour tone given the time period it’s set and there’s an actual story to it and the Obi-Wan / Leia sections had some nice moments to it with her giving him sass. There’s even quite a touching moment when Obi-Wan remembers Padme’. There’s a notable lack of member berries thrust into the background of every scene in a lame attempt to stimulate the nostaliga glands and compensate for a lack of story. You would think it’s because the titular character is a walking member berry but that didn’t stop them with TBOBF.

                The editing in this and the others is still quite poor though. There’s no intro and outro to some scenes (with a side order of assuming people have watched the clone wars / rebels and such like) in places which makes it feel like it’s rushing through and the vfx is noticeably lower quality than the movies and I’m not really convinced by Moses Ingram’s performance as the baddie (which is a surprise as she’s great in The Queens Gambit)

                Neither brilliant or crap. Reasonably entertaining so far.

                  Wally Is there any Vader yet? The main reason I’d tune in TBH

                      alistair More of a set up for what is clearly going to be the big finale of the show. Tbf to the writers they did something with Obi-wan / Vader that seems obvious in retrospect that I never even considered with the second episode.

                          Wally ditto on the reveal at the end of episode two. Also never really considered that nothing in the rest of the Star Wars-universe explains how Leia knew Obi-Wan. So in hindsight the plot they have for this show seems obvious.

                            First 2 episodes are great, some nice touches throughout
